The Indian star, unseeded here, has dropped only one game against her Chinese rival, the world number seven, so far.
Sindhu, currently 12th in the BWF World Rankings, was pushed to the limit by Malaysia's Goh Jin Wei in her campaign opener on Wednesday.
After losing the opening game, the two-time Olympic medallist fought back to clinch the thriller 18-21, 21-14, 21-19 in 64 minutes. The 28-year-old Indian shuttler, who made a return to competitive action only recently, can't afford another hour-long duel in an Olympic year.
Han Yue, meanwhile, took little time to dispatch Wen Chi Hsu of Chinese Taipei in straight games 21-14, 21-14.
Currently involved in the fight for China's second Paris Olympic Games 2024 spot with more experienced He Bingjiao, Han is as fast rising star in the circuit.
A country can send two players to the Paris Games if both are ranked in the top 16 in the world rankings, based on the 1 May 2023 to 28 April 2024 period. For China, world number 2 Chen Yufei is certain to claim one of the available spots in women's singles.
PV Sindhu, who defeated He Bingjiao to win the bronze medal in the Tokyo Olympics, is seeded 12th in the Road to Paris standings.
